Why Serve Up Smiles in Houston?

Scoop up profits with our popular ice cream franchise

Small businesses make up about 99% of businesses in Texas, and there are good reasons for that. The state has a strong labor force and favorable tax incentives (think no personal or corporate income taxes) that make starting and establishing a business easier and more affordable. Houston, mainly, is business-friendly, with its rapid permitting process and less red tape. Along with a  robust mass transit system and affordable cost of living, and you can begin to appreciate why the city has been ranked the #1 place in Texas to do business.

We’re the #1 Chain of Ice Cream Shops

We’ve been serving up smiles one scoop at a time since 1945, and with more than 7,800 locations across the globe, we’re one of the best businesses to start in Houston.
